I was pushing the throttle out of a light on level 3. I had to back off when someone pulled out of a driveway. The next thing I know I hear this horrible VERY LOUD slamming noise (like someone dropped an engine block from 10 ft into my bed). It sounded like the tranny slammed into gear. Ive never in my life heard anything so loud.


Whatever the hell is was I cant imagine it could have been good for whatever made the noise.

Is this a Juice issue?

My guess is that your allison is still learning, remember what I'd told ya it takes time. It happen to me once under a bridge with very light throtle it was realy scary.

Yikes now I remember you saying that. Hey Im catching crap from everyone for saying the delvac causes LOW oil pressure.

Where was your pressure before running delvac?

D5's right, if you don't let the alli learn, you'll get some hard shifts, and when the alli shifts hard, it tends to be loud as well..kinda a grind/clang sound. I've heard it before, not in my truck thankfully. Of coarse you may just need to stay away from the Green borrito menu at Carl's Jr. I had some strange noises in my car form that...

I went for a test ride last night with a member here and with the cali 90 on 4 it shifted like it's always had the power... smoooth. I told the guy to take it easy, sometimes you just can't help it...

Might be a tad bit lower, though I didn't notice much difference. Just have the piece of mind that the Delvac1 gets to where its needed faster...
